Congrats everyone! I hope the launch goes well. Are you guys big enough to have a PR department or will it be just you guys doing it?

We're doing everything ourselves now, and it's taking more time every week. We'll see how things evolve, but since we're only two devs, we might have to do something about that at some point.

Can I ask where you seeing are the best response from? We launched yesterday and we're only two people too.

The big iOS Gaming Blogs pretty much ignored us :) Most of those who mentioned us were flight sim related. It's easy for us to get featured in those sites since we're in a niche market.

One thing that helped a somewhat was to send them promo codes directly.

It's a painful task, sending all those emails and keeping track of those who replied, ignored, bounced back, etc... :)

What app did you guys release?

Good luck to you!

It is a painful task. I have a spreadsheet of most of the U.S. app review sites if you want it to make sure you didn't miss any. Just email me. I couldn't find one anywhere else so I started compiling one. They disappear quickly.

We launched a little travel magazine; www.overnightbuses.com

Good luck to you guys as well!
